A12691 A packe of Spanish lyes sent abroad in the vvorld: first printed in Spaine in the Spanish tongue, and translated out of the originall.

for ostentation but Gods fauour is assured to Englande in the Iustice of the quarell against any Inuadour i If there were a mutinie of Catholikes they should haue bene hanged or punished but it was not knowen that one Catholique did stir this Summer with hand or tōgue to mooue offence neither was any one imprisoned or otherwise punished k The last line is a lye with like errour as the former for there is no Hauen in Scotland called Trapena Exaten This Mendoza was very curious to forge a strange name as it appeareth hee had read of some such in Peru or in new Spaine A condemnation of the Spanish lies From England 6 THis Scottishman I thinke hath no name a manifest lye it was that Scottishmen had taken Armes against the English Such a lie did Mendoza publish some yeres past that the king of Scots had besieged and wonne Barwicke I trust he remembreth now how false a lye it was but yet he hath no grace as it seemeth to forbeare frō forging of lyes for his chollerike appetite But a manifest trueth it is that the King of Scots at the time meant made a generall Proclamation that no Scottishman should victuall any Spaniard for that the King did knowe they came to haue conquered both England and Scotland And on the other side the King by Proclamation commaunded that all succours should be giuen to the Armie of England as being the armie of his Sister and confederate and the Prince whom he knew to be inuaded most iniustly Many Scottishmen might at Burdeaux haue reported this for a truth A condemnation of Spanish lies From England 7 AL these vntrue newes are sayde to haue come from the spanish Fleete to the Kings Maiestie By this tyme is it sure that the Duke of Medina can tell the King his Master some other contrary matters for else he had no cause to flie about Scotland and Ireland l He also wil not say that eyther three Galiasses foure Galleōs of England were sunk or that euer hee coulde see one ship or one boat of England sunk He can tell the King with great griefe that hee neuer had fortunate day from his cōming from the Groine till he returned with the losse of as many shippes men victuals treasure and ordināce as might haue made a good armie by sea and great pitie it is for Christendome that both that which is lost and that which remaineth had not beene vsed by the King Catholik against the Infidels and not with ambitiō on to imploy such kinde of forces to inuade Christian countreys therewith who if he would liue in peace with them would be readye to ioine their forces with his to dilate the fines of Christendome forbeare spending of Christian blood amongst Christians m This Noble man was killed with a smal shot in the Galleasse where in very trueth hee remayned in defence of the Galleasse and sought not to flie away as a great nomber did n If it be meant the xii of August the vntruth is apparant for there was neuer fight after that afore Calleis which was the xxix of Iulie Stilo antiquo and the 8. of their August o It is very true that the Spaniards ships to make themselues light to flie did cast away their boates they threw their Moiles and horses into the seas A condemnation of the Spanish lies From England 8 THis that is sayd of the Dukes grapling with Drakes ship and taking of him captiue and many other Noble men of England is like all the rest of the lyes The Duke after hee went from Calleis towards Scotland neuer came neere to offer fight with any English shippe neuer turned backe to the English that followed him but fledde away as winde and sayle could serue him If he had this fortune thus falsely reported it is sure that hee would haue brought both Drake and some of the Noble men home with him into Spaine to haue beene presented to the king and not to haue gone home to his owne house without sight of the King But in truth there was not one Noble man or Gentleman of any Marke that went to the sea that was either slaine or taken all are liuing and are as willing by Gods fauour to aduenture their liues as euer they were against any of the Queens enemies whē she shal cōmand them And where these newes did much content the King it is likely that if he thought them true he was glad thereof for so had his Maiestie cause but hee is thought too wise to haue thought that after hee vnderstoode that the Duke and all his armie had fled from the coast of Flanders England that euer they were like to haue any victorie of the English No contrariwise the King and all his wise Counsellours had cause to lament the dangers whereunto of necessitie his Armada should fall by passing the dangerous coastes Ilandes monstruous rockes of Scotland Ireland of more danger for his Nauie to passe then to haue passed frō Lisborne to the Moloccas and home againe It is to be thought that if the Empresse gaue the secretarie Ydiaques any rewarde for the newes as it is likely shee did she may iustly require it againe frō him and giue him charge not to bring her Maiestie nor the King his master any such notorious lyes hereafter for if he vse it often he is vnworthie to be Secretarie to so great a King Jmprinted at London by the DEPVTIES of Christopher Barker Printer to the QVEENES most excellent
